What is the TELNET client you are using on the handheld device? The way
ALARM is implemented can differ from client to client. Also, are you
using a deferred WRITE on the display file?

I am writing an application in RPG which will cause a handheld scanner
to beep if certain conditions of the item scanned are met. I would like
to identify two distinct conditions with one or two beeps. The
difficulty is in generating two beeps. I set up one screen definition
with an overlay and alarm and execute a WRITE. It does not activate the
alarm. When I replace the WRITE with an EXFMT, the alarm sounds but
that holds the blank screen. Pressing `Enter` will display the actual
screen.
Is there a way to cause the alarm to function twice? If I could fool
the program into thinking I had pressed `Enter`, I could use two EXFMTs.
